                             CREATING A SERIES CIRCUIT USING TINKERCAD

                      To build a series circuit, use LEDs, a resistor and a battery to create a series connection. To begin,
                      open a new circuit window in Tinkercad and start building your circuit by placing the following
                      components: a 9V battery, two LEDs and a resistor.

                      To create a series circuit, follow the given steps:

                       Step  1    Click on the Project Name and rename your project (Series Circuit).

                       Step  2    Connect the negative terminal of the 9V battery to one leg of the resistor.
                       Step  3    Connect the other leg of the resistor to the cathode of the first LED.

                       Step  4    Connect the anode of the first LED to the cathode of the second LED.

                       Step  5    Connect the anode of the second LED to the positive terminal of the 9V battery.

                       Step  6    Click on Start Simulation to test the circuit.

                                                                                       Simulate a parallel circuit using
                                                                                       two LEDs connected to the same
                                                                                       power source. Compare it with
                                                                                        a series circuit to observe how
                                                                                           current flows differently.

                      The output  shows the LEDs lighting  up, indicating that  the circuit  is
                      correctly connected and functioning as expected.
